Get out your case-modding tools, your tricked out rigs, and your best player vs. player skills because QuakeCon is back for it’s 23rd year!

QuakeCon® will return to the Gaylord Texan Resort and Convention Center in 2018, inviting thousands of gamers worldwide to participate in the annual four-day video game festival featuring North America’s largest BYOC (Bring-Your-Own-Computer) LAN Party. Founded in 1996, QuakeCon has grown to be one of the most anticipated festivals in gaming, with over 9,000 game enthusiasts from around the globe attending in 2017. This year’s event will feature a number of exciting changes, including the reintroduction of panels and presentations along with three days of exhibits in the QuakeCon 2018 expo hall, which for the first time, will be open Friday – Sunday.

Guests can make room reservations at the Gaylord Texan Resort and Convention Center by calling 1-817-778-2000 or going online to: https://aws.passkey.com/e/49568787. A special room rate of $185 per night is available when you reference QuakeCon 2018!

This year’s BYOC will be doubling in size from QuakeCon 2017, so even more participants can showcase their custom computers and join the QuakeCon community to play their favorite games either solo or against one another on the same local area network.

QuakeCon is free for general attendees and open to the public thanks to the support of id® Software, Bethesda Softworks®, the QuakeCon volunteer staff, and the 2018 event sponsors and exhibitors.. This year’s event will offer diverse activities for all, including those who choose not to bring their own computer. Attendees are some of the first to see sneak peeks of Bethesda’s upcoming titles and announcements, while also attending a wide array of panels, presentations, tournaments, workshops and exhibits from leading tech companies showcasing the newest gaming accessories and hardware.

It's not good that ID brought back to live Quake. It's not good to see so slow progress on updates. It's not good when an update is finally here. We see whine about having no tournaments in QC yet. When a tournament is announced then why is this shit tournament being announced quake is a dead game. Quake is shit. When we see Tim being positive and happy about the game and its future it's not good. You talk all the time shit about the game we care about. If you don't like the game please stfu. Same was with Quake Live how shit the game is. I can't believe that 75% of the community is older than 30 years. You will never be supportive. The community should step together, help each other, to new players and devs.

ql is still shit. should be running fix 250 on a pentium4, but its using zero gpu power, and has an artifical cpu hunger due to the lack of understanding of the engine...which is probably running in a virtual browser (still).

qc has a terrible rocket since the beggining, and horrible optimisation. theres a reason if we all whine about it. why the hell should we be supportive with people who are getting payed to do their jobs, and their job is not to fuck up our freetime.
